The private family planner: shared calendar, chores, meals and the shopping list. New: Ask Pamily thinks ahead, on supported devices. No account, no ads.
Pamily is a small, private place for the lives you share.
It's a family planner that runs on your device — no account needed, never any ads. Birthdays, school pickups, the shopping list, the note on the fridge: everything stays on this phone unless you choose to sync or share it, and synced data is end-to-end encrypted before it leaves.
— What Pamily does today —
• Family Calendar — day, week and month views in each person's colour. In the Day view, tap a time to add an event or hold one to move it. Birthdays show up every year, double-bookings get flagged, and "Just mine" hides everyone else's plans.
• Calendars you already use — one tap from the Calendar tab. Follow school, club and holiday calendars by link and they update themselves. Show your phone's calendars next to the family's, copy family events into one, or import and export .ics files.
• School notices, read for you — share a photo, PDF or forwarded message into Pamily and it picks out the dates, ready to add as events and to-dos with one tap.
• Ask Pamily — on devices with built-in AI, ask what's on or what's due, or just say what to add. It runs on your device, and nothing is added until you tap.
• Tasks — a shared to-do list bucketed by today, this week, later, and done. Assign one person or several, mark urgent, set due dates, tick them off.
• Chores — repeat on the schedule you set and rotate through the family, with Done and Snooze right on the reminder.
• Notes — a digital fridge. Pin what matters, snap the school flyer straight onto it, attach PDFs, and turn any note into a checklist. The shopping list lives here.
• Meals — plan the week's dinners, assign the cook, and send each dish's ingredients to the shopping list in one tap.
• Nudges — a morning summary of the day, and after you save an event, the to-dos it usually brings, like a present for a party.
• Pamily (Family) — every member with their own colour, role, avatar and birthday. Quiet Wins shows who's been carrying the load.
• Extras — subscriptions and school fees, an Annual Rollup of your family's year, and a home-screen widget for today.
— Sync the whole household (optional) —
• Personal plan: sync your own devices through your own iCloud or Google Drive. Pamily never holds your data.
• Family plan: one person subscribes, everyone joins free with a QR invite — one shared workspace on every phone, updated in seconds.
• Everything synced is end-to-end encrypted on your device first. Servers only ever store ciphertext that cannot be read — not even by the developer.
— Privacy by design —
• No account, email, or phone number needed; sign-in exists only for the optional Family plan.
• No advertising SDKs. No data sales. No third-party trackers.
• Ask Pamily and notice reading happen on your device.
• Anonymous crash reports and usage counters (Google Firebase) help fix bugs — never the contents of your calendar, tasks, or notes. Opt out in Settings → Privacy.
• Local-only mode: one switch turns off sync and diagnostics entirely.
• Wipe everything from one tile in Settings; deleting the app deletes it all.
— Backup, on your terms —
Export an encrypted backup anywhere you trust — iCloud, Google Drive, AirDrop, USB. Portable backups use a passphrase you choose and restore on any device.
— Built for the everyday —
• 18 languages, with local dates and formats.
• Adaptive layout for phone, tablet and desktop.
• Accessibility — Dynamic Type up to 2.0×, large tap targets, screen-reader labels on every control, WCAG-AA contrast, reduce-motion respected everywhere.
• A komiks look — display type, mono labels, hand-drawn stamps — that doesn't feel like every other planner.
Pamily is built quietly, by one developer, in New Zealand. It will never sell your data, because there's nothing to sell.

Ratings & Reviews
This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Shopping sorted by dish, who ticked what, and a plan for two.
Shopping by dish
Ingredients sent from a meal stay with that dish: the shopping list and the fridge card file them under the dish's name, and the dish shows what's still to buy.
Who added it, who ticked it
Every line on a list says who added it and who ticked it off, and a note's History shows the ticks too.
Repeats that say when
Repeating chores and events say the day: “Every Monday”, not just “Weekly”.
Family Duo
A new plan for two people, each on all their devices: partners, co-parents, a parent and a grandparent.
Personal cloud on every device
Subscribed to Personal cloud on another device? Go to Settings → Sync & subscription, tap “Already subscribed on another device?” and sign in with the same Google account.
Ask Pamily thinks ahead
Tell it what's coming up and it offers the steps to get ready, each due in good time: swim gear packed the night before, a present bought before the party, cash for the school gala. It says what else is on that day, puts “we need milk” on the shopping list, and keeps to your words: no time when you gave none, not the whole family when you named nobody. On a scanned notice, “tomorrow” is tomorrow, and what the notice asks you to bring is due the evening before.
Also
• A family member's new phone gets the family's key without waiting for the plan holder's phone.
• Trying to join a family that's full now says so.
• Easier to use at large text sizes, with bigger buttons to remove list items.
